@FiiO Instead of launching a X5v3 this year why not update the firmware to v4.9 and when the community is happy with the performance stop at v5.0C. (Community approved)
And I must say the x5ii in black looks VERY good, with that blue light on the side! really stylish.
Big reason for me to choose a brand is updates and support, and so far Fiio looks good!? I'm getting my first FiiO DAP next week in nyc, landed on the x5ii against the x3ii.. Not 100% sure yet, but if in the future my whole music collection is DSD, that extra SD slot would be handy.. It should support 2tb in each when avaliable right, guys?
Just to throw it in there, my wish for a X5 3rd gen would be "better" audio, if at all possible for 299$??? And i'm just a little bit worried about the plastic parts sticking out on the 3.5 in/outputs, has anyone experienced problems with them breaking? Maybe FiiO should make the X5 3rd gen Black from the start, and with Blue anodized 3.5 inputs for more ruggedness and to match that sexy blue light on the pwr button! Imo that would have looked nice.
edit: I now know the 2.0fw is the final one.
